His exact height has always remained an unconfirmed mystery.
Listed as 191cm at the draft and 189cm on the RFC website.
I asked him at Club 80 and he said he wasn’t sure but thought 189cm was closest.
He’s definitely not 193cm
You may well be right but to the naked eye when they lined up on each other, he looked no smaller than Bont. Certainly big enough. Maybe Bont is fudging his height?:)

Was noticeably shorter than Balmey at the jumper presentation, that was with his boots on too. Balmey was 194cm's when he played and might've shrunk a bit too.
Just watched it now and realised Balmey's lost weight. Looks good.

Seen a picture after the game when the boys were in the circle and Riley was standing next to Grimes
They looked about the same height and Grimes is 193cm.

You actually dont want him to be too tall and 193cm would be max what you would want from a mid imo

Grimes is normally 193cm but had just lost 2-3cm by having his head squashed into the turf by Bruce

going by those pics @Tigers of Old posted, I think we can safely assume he's

A Unit +- 0.5mm/250g

actually, makes me think we should move away from the tradition 180/80 format

and list them as

Midget
Unit
Monster

RCD is tall enough to play on Bont and Cripps.

This makes him very unique as we have a team of midfield midgets relatively speaking.

It is why he was drafted, and it is why he will be given every opportunity to make it .

Thought his debut exceeded expectations, keep going young man.

Fills a massive structural need, due to his playing style, his age, and his size.

Alfie has stepped it up another gear in this game already. He's got great hands.

I thought on many occasions he just kicked it high into the forward line without looking only for Jack or Lynch to be always outnumbered

15 possessions 6 tackles
In 77 minutes out of 122. Playing roughly 60% of the game. 29 pressure acts. Pretty good second up.

Deserving of his spot. Another month of footy for him With the injury plague.

Active, getting involved.

Two pretty hot games to begin his career and acquitted himself well. Go again, young un.

Yeah, Alfie is fine. Looking forward to seeing him against a much weaker opposition.
